    @0patience , you get through the night? Everything passed south of me last night, but your area didn't look so good. All looked to be headed towards @TNBigfoot68 and @Bob_Luken 's part of the state when I turned in.

    I was up much of the night. First thing I saw was Nashville channel 4 telling me that 100 miles southwest of me there was tornado warning "with rotation" indicated by radar right on top of my son's place, (he was not there) and then the same system came towards me only to pass a little to the south. I'm reading reports that this destroyed ten homes southeast of Murfreesboro. (My son checked his surveillance cameras and could not see any damage at his place.)

    @MrShrek how are things in your neighborhood?

    We did ok. Weather pounded us pretty good and my son's had to shelter for about 45 minutes, cause there was one tornado that looked like it was headed for north of Parker Crossroads, where they are staying.
    Luckily, it didn't do anything there.
    Looks like a few touched down near Jackson and Milan.

    We're between Parkers Crossroads and Lexington right now and everything went around us. So we were ok most the night.

    Hopefully, Huntingdon didn't take much damage, cause we close on the house Tuesday. 🤣

    We regularly have tornados in my area but I'm in MO, not TN. Thanks for thinking of me. :)

    Yeah I knew it wasn’t just Tennessee that got hit last night. Glad all is well.

    St Louis area had a pretty strong weather front that moved in around 8:00 last night.

    Glad you guys are safe. I was in Lexington last week for visitation at a downtown funeral home, took me 2 hours to drive it. I say this so that it sinks in, this tornado traveled from that area to Murfreesboro which is 45 minutes east of me. That was a crazy storm.

    I was born a fool, and just got bigger!

    Evidently, one tornado traveled from Collierville to Cedar Grove.
    Those distances are insane.

    We were lucky and everything went either north or south of us.
    The closest one to us went by Clarksburg.

    We've had them stay on the ground for over 7 miles. In the last four years I've had them within 1/2 to 3/4 of a mile on three sides.

    Easter Sunday was upper 60's and sunny, and that started the parade of sunny 70's and low 80's, expected into Friday, before mid-40's and rainy on the weekend. I've been circling the sun long enough to know that some great weather in April is short-lived, but man alive, it's nice to have when you have it.

    One of the things that I always find peculiar is how each new season seems like it's the first time I'm experiencing it. It's like a year is the perfect amount of time to enjoy and forget what happened last year and be amazed at the renewal life gives.

    I've been enjoying the weather too. Got the new Solar Generator charged up in two days, the family has been out in the yard getting the garden ready, and @Vision came out of winter hibernation and joined us for a cigar on vHerf last night.

    I hope you all are ready for the gun show. Sleeveless shirt comes out in a few weeks.

    Back to winter with hard freezes forecast the next two nights. My neighbor that has a vegetable stand is not impressed.
